The 29-year-old infielder had been playing with the Long Island Ducks in the independent Atlantic League where he was hitting .270/.376/.500 with seven homers, 23 RBI and seven swipes in 45 games.

Lin latched on with the Ducks last August shortly after being released from a minor league contract with the Mets. The 29-year-old infielder last appeared in the majors for the Twins during the 2021 campaign.

Lin was released by the Mets last week and will head to the independent Atlantic League for the remainder of the season. The 28-year-old infielder has appeared in 102 games in the majors between the Twins and Red Sox since 2017.

Lin managed just a .508 OPS at Triple-A Syracuse. The utility player will look to catch on somewhere else for the remainder of the season.
